Charlamagne spoke with VladTV about the highly anticipated battle between Joe Budden vs. Hollow Da Don at the July 12th Total Slaughter battle event.  

Charlamagne was initially asked to be a judge for the battle, but unfortunately he has prior engagements that he must attend to and he will be out of town during the time of the battle.

The famed media personality believes that Hollow is "going to embarrass" Joe because of the fact that Hollow is a seasoned battler and battlers are paid to embarrass people.  He did acknowledge that Joe is a skilled lyricist; however, Charlamagne thinks that even if Joe has done his homework on Hollow, there's nothing that he can say that will resonate more powerfully with the crowd than what Hollow might say to him.
